Arild Brøter, known from the progressive rock band Pymlico, unveils a groundbreaking musical endeavour with the release of «A Spectre Of Sounds» - an instrumental rock album that reimagines the timeless James Bond music in a bold and electrifying way.
 
There have been countless James Bond albums released over the years, in almost every genre imaginable - but the vast majority of them include only the title songs, giving the rest of the score very little attention. This is one is different! On this album, Arild has skipped most of the title tracks. He has been digging deeper and meticulously taken apart the actual scores and music used in the movies, rearranging them in new and clever ways. 60 years of tone-setting music from one of the biggest movie franchises that has ever existed has been transformed into new fresh electric instrumental rock tunes.

The new arrangements seamlessly weave together the sophistication of Bond’s world with the dynamic and exhilarating spirit of progressive & classic rock. Listeners can expect a sonic experience like never before, as Arild injects new life into these familiar pieces of music, transforming them into powerful instrumental rock masterpieces - yet at the same time keeping both the grandness of the originals and the typical James Bond vibes alive. The album’s production quality and attention to detail underscore Arild’s commitment to delivering a fresh perspective on these beloved classics.

Arild has been a lifelong James Bond fan, and he’s been obsessed with James Bond music from an early age. The idea for this album has been in the back of his head for at least 15 years. To release this album is really a dream come true! 19 musicians helped him to make this dream possible, among them Bjørn Riis from Airbag, Ole Michal Bjørndal from Caligonaut and Arild’s band mates from Pymlico.
